lias not his presence is rcpilUnt and unti
magnctic, his manners art) frigid; lie is
wanting in all those qualities that create
fnlhusiasm in a following. Hut it has been
' more than one::, aud very recently, proved
in our briot history that tho attributes ho
essential to leaders iu a romantic age am
THE DAILY
not necessary to tho highest success of the
American politician. Mr. Blaino was much
lMter known, loved, and admired by their
parly, than Mr. Hayes, but ho failed byu
few voles to get the nomination. If Mr.
Sherman fails to get tho nomination ho will
at least never have to reproach himself for
not trying to net it. Tho four thousand
uatioiial banks with their colossal money
power aro in favor of his candidacy. A
powerful newspaper combination, the New
York Tribune, the Cincinnati Commercial,
Cincinnati Gazette, Chicago Tribuno and
many others, it is asset ted, have promised
their support. Ohio is for him; the presi
dent is for him; and if the powerful
publicau delegation from the South does
not conic to the convention pledged to his
support it will not bo because the influence
and patronage of the administration hus
been wasted there in the interest of other
aspirants. Col.Ingersoll recently said that the
people of the I'nited State were not stupid
enough to elect to the presidency a brother
of the General of thearmy, but the people
have little to do with electing, in the true
sense of the word. They simply divide
into two masses and within party lines for
the party nominee.
OCR WASHINGTON LKTTEK.
From our ivirulur correspondent.
Washington Dec. !U!i, lsU.
It has been my endeavor to tell the
truth with reference to the Presidential
candidates aud preferences as nearly as I
could ''ct it or might hit. Hut it is a
iifhYult thing to tell the truth on this
subject so that it may last. This fact is
particularly exposed by the development
of Democratic opinion since the assembling
o" Congress. I find there is an almost
universal anxiety about Mr. Tildeu, and
this extends to those even who are willing
that he should be nominated. How to get
rid of Til leu is the main question. That
is, how to dispose of him so there will
not be a sore spot left to endanger Demo
crats seriously in New Yolk. Many who
have been or are his supporters, an 1 nearly
all who uui say very clearly that lo crowd
him off tho track would be fatal. That is
why the booms for other New York candi
dates, as Mr. Seymour, and Judge, Church
do not take better. To pit another New
Yorker sigainst Tilden would mad him.
they say, aud drive his strength i'roin
the support of who ever might be thus
nominated. The more popular opinion on
this vexed question now is that no New
York candidate must be run against Mr.
Tilden in tli1.- Democratic cons entiou, and
that there miv-t be an appearance of giving
Tilden the choice of his successor in the
candidacy iu case he doesn't get it himself, j
In this new it is understood j
that the o'liciotts I'tieieiship i
r, i,, ' ;-
chances, lor toe man to have the liMcnj
backing must not be a cindidai.; of that
clique. Altogether it is an interesting
problem the licnocrat, have hand. (

growing to some proportions have sprung;

these things are troubling the U-publienns
less than the Tilden pioblem is troubling the
Demx.riits, but caiidur compels tin.- to say
that I believe they will increase as the can
vass goes to and Je velope into very
serious (rouble. The scutchers, bolters,
and informers in New York, .Massachusetts
and some other states are organizing for a
fight against Grunt, aud the anti-bank men
are determined to light Sherman in the
West.
Senator Cameron is still working up an
excursion to Philadelphia on tho occasion
of Grant's reception, ami it is thought that
a large majority of Senators and members
will go.

The fact is that no business ot much account

MAKUIED WITH 11IFLK IN HAND.
From Portland (Oiefou) Ilea, Nov. D!.
The news of the curious sequal of a love
affair has just reached us from Port Tow n
send. A certain young man fell in love
with a beautiful young lady, residing near
Port Townsond. His passion being recip
rocated, iniirriage was proposed, but the
young holy's parents would have nono of it.
Tho father and a beligerent undo threat
ened to do the young llomoo serious per
sonal injury in ease his attentions were con
tinued, and forbade him ever again enter
ing tlio premises, ami tho young lady is
represented an having been billerly perse
cuted on account ol her refusal to dis
countenance the disciirded suitor. Thu
young man, becoming aware of this fact,
determined to marry at unco. Accord
ingly, procuring a license and tho services
of the necessary constituted authority, and
witlud a good Winchester rillo, ho repaired
to the sbodo of tho young woman's par
ents. Encountering the father und irate
iinolti In thu yard, ho bade them "hands
t IT,'' declaring that they had throHtoned to
do him persoual injury, and that In tlio eyos
of tho law Im would bo justified in doiug

none rank so high as 1 la-, tetter's Stomach
Hitters. It speedily banishos. those pains
in tho region of tlic all'ectod organ, the
yellowness ot the skin, nausea, vertigo and
sick headache, which attend a bilious
attack. A bilious subject, after a brief
course of this capital liver stiiuulcnt and
invigovant, finds that his tonguo is no
longer furred iu the morning, his breath 4s
grown sweeter, a hundred inexplicable sen
sations no longer make his life miserable,
his bowels have acquired the steadiness of
a well regulated piece of mechanism, ami
he ciin eat w ith a hearty appetite and good
digestion. It is because the Hitters assists
nature in her efforts to bring back the dis
ordered liver aud bowels to their normal
condition that it accomplishes such re
maikabh' cures.
